Hi Rebecca,

I’m a graphic design grad student currently working on my thesis, which focuses on the integration of biomimicry into the graphic design process. I plan to discuss both the difference between biomimicry and sustainability, and how to integrate biomimicry and green/sustainable design into the graphic design process to come up with the best possible solutions to our design problems.

My question for you: After working with a green mind, what are some successful examples and unsuccessful examples that you’ve had to face in design?

I am trying to submit an entry for HauteGREEN to submissions@hautegreen.com, but my email keeps coming back with errors. I’ve tried multiple time and I’m not quite sure what to do. Do you know where I can send my submission form?
